PARALLEL PARKING MADE EASY-1951 STYLE

Every once in a while a conversation with friends over a beer will lead to automotive enlightenment. Such was the case a couple of days ago when the subject of the recent advances in automotive parking technology came up.

One of our threesome stated that such technical wizardry was nothing new. He informed us that a system was devised in the ’50s that did much the same. Being the self proclaimed car expert in the group, I doubted the authenticity of his memory, but decided to look it up on my i-phone.

Like they say, if it’s on the internet, it has to be true. So, sure enough, here it is. Enjoy.
